Modern history, or the modern era, describes the historical timeline after the Middle Ages. Modern history can be further broken down into the early modern period and the late modern period after the French Revolution and the Industrial Revolution. Contemporary history describes the span of historic events that are immediately relevant to the present time.
The modern era began approximately in the 16th century. Many major events caused Europe to change around the turn of the 16th century, starting with the Fall of Constantinople in 1453, the fall of Muslim Spain and the discovery of the Americas in 1492, and Martin Luther's Protestant Reformation in 1517. In England the modern period is often dated to the start of the Tudor period with the victory of Henry VII over Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth in 1485.Early modern European history is usually seen to span from the turn of the 15th century, through the Age of Reason and the Age of Enlightenment in the 17th and 18th centuries, until the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in the late 18th century.

Star One Victims of Modern Age Full Album
Finally science screamed and someone answered the call
To think we used to call it complex
Painful reconstruction but it's worth it all
Imagining what is sure to come next
And it's too late to tell we've been
Plugged in and wished well
Said televisions going to spread the truth
We might need reassurance but we won't need proof
And I hope somebody's keeping track these days
As we heat up like a microwave
We've got to maintain enough fossil fuels
So we can burn it later trying to keep our cool
Said I'm still living in a modern age
When I'm getting caught up in my primal rage
So I keep working just to waste my time
Pretty soon it won't matter in a modern age
Think of what is missing that we get to invent
Look how fast we're progressing so far
How did we every get by before data was sent?
I can't believe I got around without electrical cars
And now it's disgusting, depressed
Got broadband and high [unverified]
Said internets going to settle the score
We might lose motor skills but we won't get bored
And I hope somebody's keeping track these days
As we heat up like a microwave
We've got to maintain enough fossil fuels
So we can burn it later trying to keep our cool
Said I'm still living in a modern age
When I'm getting caught up in my primal rage
So I keep working just to waste my time
Pretty soon it won't matter in a modern age
If I am still alive when no one has survived
I'm hoping every shot and what I haven't got
Lord no, no, no, no, no
